Queen + Adam Lambert - Behind The Magic

[@jaredkick1177]

Came here for actual behind the scenes look... Got this instead... Was not disappointed.

[@60filmproduction97]

Same here

[@brightnight1372]

Was not expecting this either, but 13 min of belly laughing made my day!🍥 Def going under my favs : )) Everyone needs to see this, lol.. ❤

[@mamanowatum]

Me too... but this was so much better!

[@joycemoore4933]

No way to be disappointed this is hilarious! Laughed all the way through!

[@merriwynneevans5582]

Me either! OMG!

[@tweeterpie1]

Too funny....I can't believe how all those guys kept such serious faces on while doing this HILARIOUS spoof on what goes on behind the scenes. They could be ACTORS, especially the two couch (chaise lounge) guys. Lol

[@toramenor]

I thought for a sec the laser guy WAS an actor - his delivery of 'no, it was arson' was perfect - I could totally imagine him playing an arsonist in a movie! lol They were all really funny!

[@inuliger]

toramenor The laser guy looked like a near dead ringer for a young Hugh Laurie!

[@toramenor]

inuliger Yes!! I got that too! from the sketch days of A Bit of Fry and Laurie! :D

[@geenagreen053]

toramenor the way he said how he supplement his pay by giving the crew tattoo removal and eye surgery is hilarious too! ....actually, I BURST out laughing at everything! lol

[@georgediavolitsis4735]

Theresa Williams yea lol especially the guy with the beard

[@jecapeca]

They all have sense of humor. They wouldn't be able to stay calmed and serious without it. And, I like that sense of humor!

[@andystokes1368]

Brilliant, laughed all the way through. Was expecting to see the serious side of things, so it came as a surprise. Thanks all involved.

[@danpat6838]

"I sit next to the drums" was the best bit!

[@amandabuckley-taylot5626]

I went to see Queen + Adam Lambert and they rocked amazing Sheffield 27/2/2015 amazing best concert ever thank you 😘💞💞💞💞💞😉

[@store4books]

This is sooo funny, expected something serious...should have known better!! Thanks guys for a laugh at the end of an unbelievable tour and for bringing Queen back. Only Adam has the chops, the attitude, and the talent to bring back this Iconic band. Roger & Brian are better than ever! See you in Rio!!

[@manalcali153]

Freddie woulda loved this

[@edi5289]

I absolutely love this and the sense of humor exhibited by all of the crew. I adore all the "Don't tell Jill" comments. It shows why Brian said at today's final show that this was the most fun they've ever had on tour. Adam is not only brilliant but also has a great sense of humor and obviously they all do, on stage and off. I hope this is part of the tour DVD which I am counting on being made, along with some serious bits as well. Don't allow the naysayers to get to you at all, they don't deserve that power. It is obvious that everyone who was part of the tour and 99.99% of those who experienced one or more shows had the time of their lives. I sure did at the 6 shows I attended and the dozens more I've enjoyed on live stream and video. Long live (the) Queen!!!

[@emilyrose.x7354]

Couldn't agree more!! Amazing show, Thought Adam was brilliant, I'm sure Freddie would have loved him. Fingers Crossed for the DVD.

[@BuzzBee74]

"Why do you sit next to them?" "Cause they're my drums." Love it! Brilliant!

[@mariejohnson219]

I'd gladly just sit next to that gorgeous kit and it's drummer.

[@rachellarocque3938]

Right!! My favorite part!! On his hands and knees watching for them to move!! Or Roger gonna throw them over his shoulder and steal them!! Cuz they're my drums!! I can't believe I JUST found these!! I saw 1 more , and misplaced it , if you come across any others similar to this , would you mind reposting for me?? 🎙️🎵🎼🎶💖💯

[@kim-tl6lo]

Can't tell you how many times I've watched this. Love it!!!! "I got a letter from my Mom."

[@LeBaggeLady]

This is an example of why we not only know that Queen is an amazing band, ... the sense of humor you show here lets us know that the temperament of everyone involved with Queen feels relaxed & not pretentious. I have a great fondness for each individual member since watching them on tour with Adam. Queen has always been my favorite rock band & Adam Lambert is my favorite singer/performer. They create magic when they are on stage together & this video is hilarious ... thank you for the laughs on this day of mourning that the tour is over ~

[@sarahjanelambert3462]

Loved this it's great to see members of the crew . And what a great way to do it Laughed so much

[@sarahjanelambert3462]

Yolanda Osorio Thank you 😊 have added back ♡

[@liasuru9865]

When I was at their concert this summer I was looking on stage when they were arranging and saw about all the people in this video and there was a guy who shouted Pete and Pete turned around and waved , it was pretty cool , they're all so amazing

[@gaylemoser8961]

Yes, and I spotted Nigel sitting by the drums, during Live around the World, movie. Easily seen during Under pressure and Radio Gaga

[@kimemerson5732]

OMG, these guys were hysterical! What a fantastic group of people to work with!

[@YoungDave3397]

Great fun! nice to see the folks behind the scenes as well, obviously very good at their jobs.

[@taurean420]

Thanx for the beautiful memories! Thanx for putting your faith in Adam.I hope I get to see you guys someday :(

[@Whatsthequestionto42]

Andy and Mike - let me convey my deepest appreciation for the Chaiselounge handling. I was deeply impessed with the speedy appearance and re-packing right AFTER THE SONG! Honestly, sitting right next to the action you couldn't miss the efficiency this was conducted with! Wow!

[@Dollyfaceangel]

'I'm Jim, I'm the Stage Manager and one of my responsibilities is to feel important....' I lost it...HAHAHAHAHA

[@store4books]

"Brian's absolutely enamored with this guitar, it's really quite special to him...Oh damn!! It's OK I can tape it!" God I love these guys!!! Absolutely AWESOME crew!! Thank you guys for being there and WORKING so hard to make Queen come to LIFE!!

[@gamerqueen4471]

Omg yes. When he drops it, the sound is so satisfying

[@nfreal-mom]

Omg! Can you just imagine how much fun they must all have. They truly are one big happy family. I tried so hard to concentrate on the video but all I could hear was Adam‘s beautiful voice in the background singing “I want to be break free”. 😂

[@jwm4ever]

BRILLIANT! !!! Queen and Adam Lambert 4 EVER! #QueenBertsRockOn

[@doloresweatherspoon2727]

Whenever I want to smile/laugh, I watch this video. Verrryy funny 😄.

[@annabellehowe_3568]

THEY REALLY TOOK THE TIME TO MAKE THIS. I genuinely believed it at first an then realised after like 2 minutes.. Fabulous work.

[@desidstebohemer]

The chaise longue guys are priceless :D

[@Buttercanes22]

I'm not sure which 111 people disliked this, but they all need a day off. From the internet. To re-evaluate their lives. This is and will always be, one of the best behind the scenes videos. It is oscar-worthy. Steve P you legend!

[@djblc2201]

Wow a comment from back in the day when KZbin shows dislikes ! Awesome video

[@MsGlamLamb]

That's priceless! Can't wait to see Queen and my King Adam in Rock in Rio!!!

[@friedhelmedler5087]

I love this "behind the magic" Please MORE OF THAT JAZZ :)

[@mztweety1374]

Saw them at work before the pandemic….yeah I cried a little.

[@knswed]

HIlarious! Loved seeing this. Great sense of humor from the crew.

[@tyharrison747]

BRILLIANT!! all of the people involved in this did a great job, I can only imagine what the outtakes look like :-) :-) its great to see the people behind the production. I'm an old school Queen fan, and have nothing but praise for the production and performances of this tour. Adam's done a fantastic job, and I'd like to see some of the negative posters get up on stage and do what he does!!

[@seanmac6060]

To follow my last post. I have been a Queen fan from the very first day that they graced a stage. I have been lucky to catch 4 of their shows over the years, the last being 1986 at Slane here in Ireland, Little knowing that it would be Freddie's last tour :( . I have to say in my own humble opinion and from a singer's perspective, That Adam is an incredible singer and performer, and everyone has their own opinion on the matter. But when either a new player or singer joins a band, they bring something different and new to the table and I think Adam has brought a new lease of life to the show, I mean something that is giving Brian and Roger a great blast and fun, which is always great. Just a quick "For instance" I can't remember to hand which song it was during one of their concerts, but Spike was tearing away at a rip roaring piano solo and Adam went over to his side of the stage and leaned over the top of the keys and started belting out on the top register of the keys, quickly followed by Brian who proceeded to accompany Adam by also leaning over and lending his keyboard skills as well. Now to watch this, and as a musician, this is what it's all about, Enjoying your gig!! and when the audience see you enjoying what you do, they will follow suit. It's simply sending the good vibes from the stage out to the audience, them feeling the good vibes subsequently returning the vibes back on to the stage that the guys feel the feedback, and when they experience this, that gives a serious buzz which then continues by simply sending and receiving the vibes resulting in the best feel good experience for everyone involved, The band AND The audience. But to finish up on what my first point was, There was and only ever will be one Freddie (God rest his soul) Adam has shown wonderful flamboyance and an impeccable vocal range in his performances and is a really nice guy who feels humbled to be in the company of men that were heroes of his as a kid, and I'm sure Freddie looks down from above and says YEAH!!!!!!! After all, to quote Freddie, "Here's my music, go and use it" God Save "QUEEN" :)

[@chezzasan2730]

What you described - the back and forth energy shared between the audience and singer, Adam had that tattooed on his wrist - he chose the 'infinity' tattoo to symbolize that energy.

[@seanmac6060]

Is that right? wow!! I didn't know that. That's really cool. Thanks for sharing this. Very best wishes and kindest regards...Sean :)

[@sharonbunn8460]

Well said, Sean. Adam has an infinity tatt that was done during his Glamnation Tour, describing exactly what you said about the feedback from the audience fuels him and he fuels the audience, hence his infinity symbol, an unbroken figure eight, connecting us as one. He loves to play with the band and the audience & sets the tone for a fun, vocally & musically magical show. The best! funbunn40

[@seanmac6060]

Awww thank you Sharon for taking the time to comment on my post and what an awesome comment. :) I was totally unaware of this and am delighted you told me. Very best wishes and kindest regards from Ireland Sharon :)

[@capturedangel139]

Hello Sean, I am guessing we are in the same age bracket, as I too was around when Freddie was making music and performing live. In fact, "We Will Rock You" was the first song my then 18-month-old daughter learned to sing when it was still playing on the radio back in the late 1970's, and I didn't even know she was secretly learning it without my teaching her! :-) But you are right that there will never be another Freddie Mercury, and why would anyone want another one? He is a legend and will never die. That said, Adam is an incredible singer and is bringing freshness to Queen's incredible live performances. It's great to see the music of this great band still being played to younger people who weren't even born when it was made, and seeing that these kids are loving it! As I watch these performances with Adam, I am thinking: I bet Freddie is smiling down from Heaven, and I am hoping that Freddie is happy knowing that the world still loves him and his music.

[@halag]

So funny! I love that all of them have such a great sense of humor including Brian, Roger, Spike, Neil & Adam. Funniest guys - no wonder the show is so damn good - the awesome chemistry we see on stage extends to the crew as well. I really wish the miserable nay-sayers would rack off tho & stop spoiling things for everyone else. It's been months now and this collaboration has proven itself to be an absolute gem. Besides this is a funny video by the crew made just for fun. Enjoy it and stop whining for a change.

[@DirkTomandl]

That's hilarious! Brilliant! I love QUEEN and Freddie Mercury. Adam Lambert does Freddie and Queen justice. His voice and stage presence is stunning. I saw them twice live and was blown away.

[@kittycomere]

"I'm Andy and this is my colleague, Mike, we are the chaise lounge techs" lol

[@eduardosanchezalvarez1437]

This band was and is so amazing

[@brightmuseofire1684]

Love it, guys. Highly amusing, just like your Queen's Greatest Hits commercial! Queen is as amazing as ever. The Queen + Adam Lambert concerts were the best 2 concerts I've ever been to!

[@lalaloopsy6522]

This was so wonderful. You guys are the funniest ever. You obviously have a ball together and I a so envious of people who get to work in jobs where they can have this kind of fun. Your amazing, thank you.

[@seanmac6060]

This is without doubt THE BEST behind the scenes video I've ever seen!!! I'm a singer/bass player. I've been gigging 41 years this year

[@bjarnipalomino5592]

These guys have a great sense of humor! Wonderful team!

[@mikeschiesel2852]

I love this fun look behind the scenes.....great job guys....your hard work is appreciated

[@anamenezes07]

18/09 Rock in Rio! Welcome back to Brazil!!! Welcome Adam!!! :)

[@iclsicls]

Espero vocês no Brasil! Lambert is great!!! Good vibe!!!

[@flyinwhitehorse]

Hysterical!!! the sofa movers and Adams leopard underwear. Too funny! But all joking aside, it was the most amazing production I've ever seen in my life!!!! Gorgeous set from top to bottom & beginning to end. The lasers, flashing color lights, the smoke, and the Gold!! The pictures &vids from QAL show have turned out extraordinarily gorgeous!! Topped off with the Best musicians in the World! Adam's Amazing Supernatural Voice made it The Cherry for a Total Royal Epic Show...you can feel Freddie smiling :)) Thank You to ALL who made this tour happen and be so successful!

[@SuzieNerds]

"Oh, no! All my purple knobs have gone blue!"

[@rrr1063]

Ha ha, classic.

[@mariejohnson219]

It's very important that all your purple knobs don't turn blue! ROFL

[@merriwynneevans5582]

That means it's going to explode! LoL! 😂😆😅

[@amyrebeccabond]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@kariannefimland1475]

Best line 🤣

[@My2ndnephew]

Cracks me up, what a good video. So funny. Y'know, I'm so tired of the 'we should go back to 1986' commenters. I understand loving Freddie and being loyal, but being loyal shouldn't make you deaf and really, really dumb.

[@Sarannah100]

I would love to see the blooper reel from this! They must’ve cracked themselves up filming this.

[@graceantonio3573]

😊LOL😄 this is pure entertainment! But don't tell Jill, & glad ugot Brian's hair back in the reel 😆 & also, I wud'v loved to hang out in the chaise lounge w/those two wranglers 😁hahahaaa! I want that job! Thanks I really enjoyed this, God bless everyone of 😚u guys, great job!

[@1967Cindy]

This is a fun way to introduce some of the crew, and the first 19 seconds shows the enormous amount of work that goes into getting the stage ready for the show.

[@ATOMIKDOG23]

Absolute class ...!

[@marilynbrown2183]

Came across this video, too funny....love Queen and Adam and the crew.

[@Whatsthequestionto42]

So I spent some hours seriously working at sorting trough my and my friends pics for a picture book on the QAL concerts we saw, and then I stumble across this and I just laugh and love it and am happy, because this reflects the whole tour so much better .... thanks a ton for this vid!!! Going back to my little corner of the tour ... and I just might add a screenshot here and there of behindthescenes I never saw.

[@LizMercury1992]

How I haven't seen this before? this so funny, I'm expecting seriousness but Im laughing all the way🤣, shout out to all the crew who participate on this, Great team,Great Band!

[@baldingogre]

Loved the priceless Jimi Hendrix guitar! Excellent video, love Queen!

[@mikeflight9]

Nice credit to all the crews too.

[@chunyili7134]

On the FREDDIE GO & HOME BUTTON "If Freddie doesn't appear, I'd have to push that button and it will order me a taxi home" LMFAO

PLEASE, someone tell me how they did this with straight faces?!?!?! I have had to pause this video so many times because I was laughing and crying so hard!! I hope everyone realizes that concerts can not happen without ALL these great people working in the background. Got room for one more person?

[@mariejohnson219]

Oh, pick me! Pick me too!

[@marymayhew5002]

What an unexpected, wonderfully funny video. Couldn’t stop myself laughing. Thanks for this! 🤣🤣🤣👑👑❤️

[@beverleygould4308]

Fabulous, that was so funny!! Brilliant...just like the tour! x

[@ellen1148]

I see some people do not have a sense of humor. This is hysterical, TY for drying my tears from the tour being over today !

[@lovelyritametermaid5440]

This video is hilarious!!!! We needed a good laugh, lots of tears realizing the Sheffield concert is now over and there is a pause on the QAL tour. Will watch this over & over when I need a good laugh! On a serious note, thank you to all the pivotal players behind the scenes that this tour couldn't have existed without them.

[@AdamLambertHungaryAdamFansNet]

Loving this!

[@Mycutie996665]

Love it too! 👑 😉 But can't watch in Germany 😒 grrr!!!!

[@krystalgeorge6193]

Krystal he is sexy

[@csuszka]

Adam Lambert Hungary Szia :D

[@Jofrazerbrown]

LOVE Queen and think Adam Lambert does a great job of being himself and trying not to be the FANTASTIC Freddie.:)

[@katherinecox399]

Love this!!! Clearly on stage there is such comarodery but it definitely exists behind the scenes as well. What a fun time everyone must have had. Thank you for this hysterical video. Will watch it over and over again!!!

[@ciaomarsha]

LOVE THIS!!! Humor is a great quality

[@genome38]

Cute way for the behind-the-scenes crew to show themselves. Lots of hard work to set up and dismantle that huge set, plus all the technical aspects of the sound, light show, etc. Over and over. Amazing. The only thing "ridiculously bad for queen" is the rudeness and stupidity of the Freddie trolls (giving Freddie a bad name by the way) being rude to his beloved colleagues Brian and Roger, and thinking their opinions matter even a speck anymore.

[@Highland5dog]

Okay, while I can still chime in, check out the hysterical section between 3.51 and 4.32 when Brian's guitar handler drops the supposed guitar from the hand scrawled "Jimi Hendricks" guitar that shatters. Anyone notice that major spelling error in Hendrix's last name?..not to mention the fake guitar.

[@yq5861]

It's so funny. I love this video!!! I really want to know how the behind scene actually work!!! Thanks to everyone who worked hard for all these amazing show!!!

[@RockU2Death5150]

like watching a "Monty Python" sketch with Queen music. So happy!

[@myrin265]

I thought this was a legitimate BTS video. This is so much better.

[@chronic_hip_and_back_pain]

So... You're telling me that Brian didn't write "Hit Me Baby One More Time"?

[@AspergerNerd]

Absolutely hilarious. Loved seeing you in January. Life-long dream finally realised. Best concert I've ever been to!

[@apokab6453]

I saw the chaise lounge guy live in action at the show! :)

[@lilianalcasid5236]

Just hilarious indeed!!!:) Crews behind the scene are very important people to appreciates the most!!!:)

[@Anna-fj9hx]

Grandioso!!!! Queen😘😘🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
